• Fantom has dipped 4.71% in the past day and 23.51% in the past week

• The token is currently retracing within a consolidation 

• A dip below the support could open more sell trades

Fantom FTM/USD has been adversely affected by the bearish correction in cryptos. The token is down 4.71% in the past day, with weekly losses at 23.51%. Currently, FTM is trading at $0.2905. Despite the negative trend, Fantom is one of Ethereum’s rivals with strong fundamentals.

Fantom is a highly scalable independent decentralized project. The blockchain is suitable for decentralized applications and cryptocurrencies. With its lower transaction fees and Fantom Opera’s high throughput, it is one of the fast-paced blockchains.

DeFi users, enterprise apps, and Ethereum virtual Machine developers are currently flocking the network. FTM, which powers staking and governance functions, is yet to reap the gains of the network’s growth. The token has remained at the center of crypto volatility. 

FTM has lost a whopping 91% from its highest point year to date. The short-term technical outlook shows consolidation amid a weak momentum.

According to the daily chart, FTM has been locked in a consolidation pattern. The token has been trading between $0.2 and $0.42 price levels. The pattern has been maintained for about four months.

Currently, FTM is on a retracement amid a bearish momentum. The 20-day and 50-day moving averages offer resistance to the upside. The two averages are possible points of consolidation or resistance in the case of a trend reversal.

The RSI is currently at 36, the lowest level since June. Despite the indicator approaching the oversold zone, FTM should overcome the $0.42 resistance level to become bullish. If the reverse happens, the token could retest lower levels.

Concluding thoughts

FTM faces a strong bearish momentum, with more than 23% weekly losses. The token has remained in consolidation for longer. The token could trade lower if the $0.2 support level fails to hold.

• Sandbox failed a break out at $1.3 and has retraced to a support

• Price weakness emanates from the general crypto mood and lack of Sandbox developments

• SAND remains vulnerable unless potential price catalysts come up

Sandbox token SAND/USD looked likely to take new heights as the price hovered around $1.3. Price consolidated at the resistance level for weeks, but neither bulls nor bears seemed to win the battle. Since most other cryptocurrencies were surging, that gave hope that bulls would eventually triumph. Bears seem to have taken control as the price has dipped to $1.03. That is a potential demand zone but will buyers push the token higher?

Sandbox does not look promising at the current level. First, Sandbox has depended on the momentum of the crypto sector lately. The momentum is currently weak. Before the sentiment improves, SAND could weaken further. Secondly, projects building on the metaverse has slowed lately. Although a great opportunity exists for the metaverse sector, investors are interested in current developments. The lack of clear fundamentals from the metaverse sector could be a blow to the short-term recoveries of SAND.

Technically, Sandbox is bearish. The momentum indicator shows that the price is extremely bearish at the key support of $1.03. No price action to show that the price is about to recover at the support. Consequently, SAND is vulnerable if momentum fails to improve quickly. Investors should not buy the token at the support but should watch price action and general sector mood. If SAND loses the $1.03 support, the token could slide to $0.85.

Summary

Sandbox token remains vulnerable at the $1.03 support. The lack of clear fundamentals and momentum is a catalyst for further bear weakness.

• Shiba Inu token rallied to $0.000017 as risk-on sentiment entered markets

• The token trades at support after losing grip of previous gains 

• Crypto sentiment remains weak, but Shiba Inu could take a u-turn to the upside 

Whether Shiba Inu SHIB/USD has returned to the bear market is a question hard to answer. However, one sure thing is that Shiba Inu maintains key technical levels. Buyers could be about to take it higher after the latest slowdown. 

Shiba Inu is one of the cryptocurrencies that returned massively recently at the height of meme-rally. However, the token is back to the drawing board, with losses in the last seven days climbing to 17%. Most other cryptocurrencies are already in the red indicating widespread corrections.

The current SHIB price coincides with support at $0.00001242. That is the level at the price broke and became bullish at the back of the renewed meme-token rally. We can see that the price shows some indecision after the latest losses. Bulls are rejecting the downward pressure, a major indicator that demand is strong for the meme token. 

The momentum indicator is showing a bearish price move. We remain optimistic that if SHIB maintains the support zone, the MACD indicator could turn bullish.

Concluding thoughts

While crypto sentiment remains weak, SHIB has maintained key support. The bear pressure is weakening as the price shows indecision at $0.00001242. A potential recovery is possible if the price maintains its level. Investors should watch price action and consider trades if sentiment improves.

If SHIB loses grip of the support, bears will take control. That could see the price trade back to $0.000010. The next days’ price action will dictate the potential direction for SHIB.
